JanetAnne Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 Either you are exceeding the 16a available power or there is a fault somewhere 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrundallNavy Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 Have you checked the plugs are clean both ends. If you have nothing turned on ring the yard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanetAnne Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 Can you try a different post to see if it's the post that's faulty? Alternatively turn everything off, plug in and then turn stuff back on one at a time to see what trips it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyg Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 Call the yard out, I'd leave it till the morning if you can. It's a hire boat not worth getting to involved with the electrics unless it's something obvious. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andyg Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 Had mixed blessings with shore power last October. Seemed to work fine in the boatyards we visited, new Inn horning was fine. The BA public moorings we stayed on we didn't seem to do so well. Not sure if we were unlucky or that's the norm. We gave up in the end, to much of a pain in the a..e to be honest.

andyg Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 Glad your up and running again, early season snags I call them Andrew. Virtually all the hire fleets have been sitting about for 4 months now in the cold and damp. Some batteries would have deteriorated over the winter etc. Ranworth is always a good place to watch Batteries being swapped out by the engineers at Easter lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
